    Anthony Davis got a sponsor contract clause that he must obtain those?

    I think it's the Derrick Rose rule.

    The rule allows a player finishing his rookie contract to make 30 percent of a team's salary cap -- up from 25 percent -- if he's twice been voted an All-Star starter, twice been voted All-NBA or won an MVP award.

    hell yea. He's bringing Khole and his posse to party all Weekend long from break to dawn.

    Harden probably doesn't want to make All Star just so he can party and make "CREATOR DON"T FOLLOW" commercials.

    I guess Adidas would feel so regret to give him fat contract in summer.

    Zaza and Kanter have no right to sniff the all star game. If either of them make it that would be sad for the players who really deserve it.

    I'm actually with DaDakota on this. I hope he doesn't make it, so Khloe has to find a different escort to the dance.

    But something tells me the coaches will vote him in. I think it stems from seeing how much attention they give him with their defenses.
